I know we've probably said similar things to them ourselves, but I think we of the stealth squadron should thank (and make sure BH knows who to blame) GrandpaG for his excellent secret organisation of the strike, and Gravel and FishFuzz for going the extra mile to make our attack extra personal. Bloody good job guys! Hats off to you, you've done us proud!

More bloody disinformation--let the record show that despite Greyson's attempt to put all the blame on myself, Fishfuzz, and Gravel, this mission was the result of several discreet operations being merged. Which is to say, I have it on the highest authority that at the time this was put together, Greyson, Rob_in_MO, Kaiser83, Gravel, and potentially others were working on a similar strike--to say nothing of the fact that without the participation of all the, uh, participants, no amount of planning would amount to doodly squat.

Which is not to discredit the awesomeness of Fishfuzz and Gravel, which is manifest, but simply to point out that this went off the way it did because so many badasses assemble here at the BoB. Many thanks to everyone, including a few non-BoB Bomber regulars (BoB Irregulars, perhaps?) who signed on for this particular operation--to all participants, be they green pilots eager to prove their mettle or veteran volunteers who came out of retirement for one last run, a hearty huzzah to every man/ladyjack of you!

And, of course, the heartiest huzzah of all for our poor, doomed leader--may the hair on his hooves never fall out!

HEY! Easy there cowboy, you meant Gravel. GRAVEL.

The truth is like a mantra:

Grandpa, Gravel and FishGrandpa, Gravel and FishGrandpa, Gravel and FishGrandpa, Gravel and FishGrandpa, Gravel and FishGrandpa, Gravel and FishGrandpa, Gravel and FishGrandpa, Gravel and FishGrandpa, Gravel and FishGrandpa, Gravel and FishGrandpa, Gravel and FishGrandpa, Gravel and Fish were the ones responsible.

All I'm going to say about it is, I was playing some stickball with some fellas behind the barracks and Capt. Grandpa called me aside and asked me if I wanted to fly a special top secret mission to a target that they say can't be hit. How was I to resist?

Doh! It musta been a Fruedian slip, since you've been starring in my dreams so much of late, sailor. Thanks for the tip-off, apologies to the gritty one, and corrected!

Can someone make me up a Purple Heart with the new bomber thing inside it? As I lie here in the ICU I think I deserve at least that much.

Thus far I've completed what I think is a list of what hit today and a few days ago. Couldn't do more due to writer's cramp. That and the plaster was still setting. And Nurse Deezle kept coming in with this little thermometer and a gleem in her eye. That one scares me.
